I have a client who is having trouble with the VPN connection to our network. He is running the Cisco VPN client on an NT Workstation machine and connects to his ISP (UUnet) by dialup (56k v.90).
The problem we are having is that he can transferup to 2000 bytes (yes – that’s bytes) by FTP and it works just fine. Any more than that and his FTP client just hangs (either using WSFTPLE or from the NT command line). Without the VPN client, everything works fine. On Monday, we’re going to upgrade to the v3.0.2 VPN client (currently at v2.5) but I’m skeptical that will fix this problem.
When I do a traceroute from our VPN Concentrator (Cisco/Altiga) to his workstation, it is 16 hops and the last hop (from the ISP to his workstation) has a latency of between 250-300 msec.
Has anyone else seen something similar and have you found a solution?
